I talk to the trees Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 After hours of unsuccessful googling to identify a song she danced to several years ago, my daughter as asked me to consult the Hive, for the Hive is wise and possesses great Google-fu! Here’s the problem: she only remembers a couple of lines, and one of those goes “ You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you.” Another one she remembers, though it is a little fuzzy is “ Across the room you catch my eye.” Or something like that. Also, “ I have what you need” or maybe “ I am what you see” ? I have a vague memory of the song she is talking about, and it had kind of a slow, deliberate, techno feel to it. This is the ONE performance that she has ever done that we do not have a video of (another parent promised me a copy of hers, and never followed through.) The song had to be released prior to 2014, because the performance was in January of 2014. Please, please help us! It is driving both of us crazy that we cannot identify this song! 🤪 Quote
Suzanne in ABQ Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 Is it this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OidkOqci2RE https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=song+lyrics+you+you+you+you+you&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 1 Quote

Roughly 70-72 bpm, I would guess. eta: Thanks for trying, though! Edited January 7, 2020 by I talk to the trees Quote
BeachGal Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 Pet Shop Boys ‘The Theatre’ maybe? They’re not saying “you you you” but “tu ru tu tu tu tu.” 1 Quote

They’re not saying “you you you” but “tu ru tu tu tu tu.” No, it’s definitely “You” that they are saying in that line. We both remember that much, just not much more! 😅 Quote
scholastica Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) My dd suggested With You by Chris Brown . ETA. Shut Up and Dance ? Although I think it’s too recent. Edited January 7, 2020 by scholastica 1 Quote

happi duck Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 @ChrisB thanks for maintaining the Hive's reputation! After listening to the song I can imagine it was a really cool routine 2 Quote
BeachGal Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 That is a slow beat for a dance routine! But the song is really interesting. So last night after reading this thread, I spent the next two hours going through the songs I saved from Shazam. I'm half-way through but now I have a bunch of new songs for playlists. 1 Quote

AWESOME!!!! I know the feeling of not being able to find a song. So regarding google-fu...you'll appreciate this. I typed in all the lyrics you provided, separated by quotation marks, and the only result (yes, only 1 result--does that even happen with google??? lol) that came back was an episode of the TV show So You Think You Can Dance. I then searched for that specific episode, found a few choices that detailed the episode, and one luckily gave the specifics of the song. I had some false leads before I did the above, but fortunately this one worked. When I went to bed last night, you gave enough details that I was fairly certain it was the one. I even compared your BPM clue. Puzzles are awesome!! 4 Quote

I love these threads because I find so many new artists that I've never heard of before and take many a bunny trail through old (nostalgic) and new songs. Good times! 2 Quote
